When a survivalist is in a SHTF situation, it can be challenging figuring out what shelter to build. After all, the shelter a person needs mainly depends on the building tools, weather conditions, and materials someone has.
In addition to deciding on what type of shelter to construct a survivalist should also consider whether it's even safe to go looking for materials for the shelter they end up building. You never know when a dangerous person may be lurking and looking to steal supplies.
Taking the weather into consideration is also vital. Think about whether a mud hut would keep you safe from the rain and whether wasting time looking for grass for a roof when it's snowing is the wisest of ideas.
Thinking about these questions when deciding on what shelter to construct is crucial. Also, remember that building a primitive shelter also involves a lot of improvising.
